  • Established Reputation
    Ricky Recard founded ProRec Plumbing Solutions over 10 years ago, building it into one of the most trusted plumbing businesses in Melbourne’s metro area.
  • Business Growth and New Challenges
    As ProRec grew, so did the challenges—
    an expanding team, broader service
    areas, and a larger client base.
  • Partnering with Flat Planet
